Pediatric Infectious Disease
At Swedish, our pediatric infectious disease specialists diagnose and treat a wide range of infectious and immunologic diseases in infants, children and teens. With a primary focus on diseases and conditions that harm the immune system, we also help solve complex pediatric cases that can be difficult to diagnose or don’t respond to typical medication.
If your child gets an infectious disease, we work with their regular pediatrician to ensure that they receive all the necessary treatment. We’re also here for inpatient consultations and evaluations if your child needs us during a hospital stay.
Conditions We Treat
Some examples of the infectious diseases that we treat across Swedish locations include:
- Bone infections and joint infections
- Fevers of unknown origin
- Hepatitis
- Meningitis
- Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)
- Respiratory infections
